Long Awaited 68 Camaro Build

[BeerB8AmmoGRITS]

Back Story First. My amazing wife bought me this car almost 4 years ago now as an engagement present (she got a ring so I got a car) I WIN! I got very little play time with it due to the fact that we got stationed in Korea for two years almost immediately (We are both in the Army). But what I got was 2 years of every Holiday getting parts! Unfortunately I haven't even been able to open one box since as soon as we got back to the states we had just enough time to tie the knot and we were both shipped to Afghanistan. Oh well, another year of buying and receiving parts as gifts. Bottom line, I am sick and tired of looking at EVERYONE's project updates when I have been separated from my car for 3 years and since I am FINALLY returning home for good very shortly I figured there was no better motivation than to start my build thread! Here is a run down of the parts I have accumulated:



Drive train:
- Forged LQ9 block bored .30 over (including wiring harness, ecu, pedals, LS1 front drive accessories, basically everything to make it run
- Hooker LS swap headers and motor plates
- LS3 Heads
- Had purchased an LS3 intake but then I found a sweet deal on a Harrop HVT 1900 Supercharger kit for an LS3 I couldn't resist
- LS1 T-56 Trans w/ 5.0 shifter (gonna need to beef that up a bit)
- Impulse buy on a great deal from MCB on a vaporworks tank with the LSA fuel pump (can't wait to see one of these in person)
Suspension:
- Complete ridetech front coilover kit
- Rear ridetech air bar
- Front and rear single adjustable ridetech coilovers
- Front Wilwood 6 piston dynalite kit w/ drilled/slotted rotors
- Rear Wilwood 4 piston brakes w/ ebrake assembly
- Wilwood master with hydratech hyrdroboost (another deal too good to pass up from Matt at MCB... that guy is killin me with his specials!!)

and about a thousand miscellaneous parts to make it all work...

Up next is a rear 9 inch (haven't made up my mind of currie, moser, strange just yet) But I need it to get a rolling chassis together
Some Pics of how it has sat for the last 3 years waiting for me to get home. Not a bad start. The majority of the heavy bodywork is done. These pics are from right before I left, but now I am being told the pile of boxes of new parts has overtaken the car, I can't wait to get home!! Making up for 3 lost Christmas's!
